Intel's top dog shows up in our labs and makes a mess out of our benchmarks. What will the results show once we clean things up?

We have been critical of Intel with their recent launches in respect to enthusiast benchmark results. For the past few years, Intel had been a bit behind the eight ball in the gaming arena. For the most part, they were doing well from an application standpoint, and truth be told, the real money for most industries lies with business users and OEMs.
